Research material that was statistically analyzed (completely filled) included 28 survey questionnaires, that were fulfilled with beforehand expression of acceptance of taking part in the research, which constitutes approximately 8% of whole population of dialyzed children in Poland at that time (2011/2012) and is the limitation of the presented research results.

Patients in the Hemodialysis (HEMO) study who received a dialysis dose higher than that recommended by the National Kidney Foundation guidelines, or who were dialyzed using high-flux filters neither lived substantially longer nor had fewer hospital stays than those who received the currently recommended standard dose or were dialyzed with low-flux filters.

A retrospective cohort study was conducted among all patients who were dialyzed in the dialysis center from January 1992 (approximately 6 months before the first seroconversion) through December 1993 (epidemic period).
